Guild Wars 2

Sorry, what is “habiladesde”?

I could do without the enemy being immune to my knockdown and immobilization skills.
Those mushroom buggers are crazy! Knock me down, bounce me around… make me run away…
I’m having fun!
Please forgive all those, “it’s too hard, Mommy” complainers.

GW2 without the HoT expansion required grinding so come up with a better question.

Thanks for the link, Chaba. It is just over 2 years old. We’ve seen ANerf change their minds about a lot of things in that time.
I would just like something from a Dev…
Gaile? Turn on the BatSignal!

Trying to find any information and not having much success so here goes:
When HoT is released and the new Boarderland map is in place, will the current server rankings stay as they are or will there be a hard reset of scores?
Lots of rumors and no answers.

Will everyone begin at Tier Zero?

Zachary Stiers.1879:

This is a complex problem. The intention was to make it harder to fire from the ground onto and over walls while still being able to fire from walls downward, but trying to get such behavior is not simple. I do agree that the cases displayed in the screenshots are not great though.

Should be easy – If you can’t – an an Ele or Ranger, pull back on your camera and hit the ground on the other side of a keep/tower wall with Barrage or Meteor Shower, then you should use the same code logic for the AC.
Seems pretty straight forward (sorry for the pun).

Old Pay-for-the-gamers complaining about F2P players after all the limitations placed on F2P?

How is this still a thing?

~gets his Kodachrome ready~

Think you meant Kodan*chrome.

Oooh, clever, Opo!

We’re really looking forward to your screenshots. Biggest amount of dev involvement will be from 1:00 to 3:00 PM on Friday but some of us will be in and out of the game during the entire invasion. See you there!

No no no… I am the original OPO. Who is that usurper?!

From any location in the game:
Hit B
Double click on the BL you want to go to.

ZERO need to gather like lambs at the portals.

Fixed breakfast, opened forum, read thread, shot milk out my nose from laughing…

As this has been removed – will any player that used skill points to purchase the skill be reimbursed?

3,464 posts… At $50 a pop…
$173,200.00 worth of angry…

Long term players spent $60 on the game, minimum of $50 for gems and now a minimum of $50 for expansion.
New players spend a minimum of $50 for everything.

Explain to me how that looks…

3 year GW2 player – $50 for game, $50 on gems (minimum) and now at least $50 for an expansion (cough cough cough…)
New player – $50 for the whole thing… $80 if you want some extra goodies.

Hmmm… seems fair. Seems right. Seems… hey… where did the Vaseline go?

Meehael.8240:

Boring, repetitive, often time-gated and no jump-for-joy effect.

This describes the process of doing every event, running every dungeon and never seeing a precursor. The “luck factor” sucks.

Michael Henninger.7451:

Match manipulation is a no-no.

I’d really like to know what defines match manipulation in a WvW setting.

Intentionally building siege to drain supply and hit the cap would be manipulation.
I believe there was a infamous flying enemy recently – cheating is manipulation.
Spying… which some have said is a tactic is spying. Cheating is also a tactic… and draining supply by building useless siege.

Anyone have information on the actual cost of this? I’ve heard $40 – $50 – which is nearly the cost of a whole game. Thinking if that is the general cost there better be at least 2 toon slots and some serious additional bonus (not counting the specialization add-on stuff).

coffen.5471:

I’ve thought of onto jumping onto TS, the problem though is I’m a pretty young gamer. I want to try my best to stay away from TS because my high voice and the fact people won’t take me seriously. Ill probably try at some point, and thanks for the feedback!

The release notes are incorrect

To celebrate the tenth anniversary of the original Guild Wars, we’ve updated the Black Lion Weapon Specialist’s inventory.

The new Balthazar’s weapon set is available for one Black Lion Claim Ticket.
The Chaos weapon skins inspired by the original Guild Wars have been reduced to one Black Lion Claim Ticket each for a limited time.
The Tormented weapon skins inspired by the original Guild Wars have been reduced to one Black Lion Claim Ticket each for a limited time

The Balthazar’s weapons SET is not available for one ticket.

Instastealth is a joke.

How so?

Many skills have instant cast. I wouldn’t be against a cast time on some of the skills that allows for a little more counter play. Perhaps in the form of a visual cue that allows for it to be interrupted.

I would hardly call it a “joke” though. Seems to me, if you had a genuine concern, you would be discussing, it rather then making a purely inflammatory comment that contributes nothing to the conversation.

The ability to vanish while in clear view of your opponent is a joke. It’s not inflammatory – it’s fact. I would not have an issue if the thief was required to break line of sight.
Just because I don’t post a wall of text with my issues with the thief and the magic powers of vanishing with zero trace does not make them invalid.
If a thief could not instastealth would it be as popular?

Instastealth is a joke.

The hypocrisy is strong in this thread.
Players telling other players they way they play is wrong and get mad when anyone suggests they might actually be unrealistic with their views.

The most likely explanation is a combination of peanutbutter cracker, a oddly placed cable and a couple of mice (rodents, not HIDs).

Osu.6307:

I really don’t understand ppters. Is siegehumping fun? Not for most people. And its not like there is a reward for it. The points literally don’t matter. If you really think ppt should be more important than fights, lobby anet to award the matchup winner with a reward that is actually worth getting.

PPT is not siegehumping. PPT is flipping a target location to ensure the most points to a server at the end of the tick. FA does this all the time because the points do matter. Have a look at the score evolution this week:
http://mos.millenium.org/servers/view/39/261
Notice all those high INCOME numbers? That’s PPT. That’s helping to driving the score.

Melanion.4892:

The best way to report speedhackers or wall-hackers is still to report them as bots, right? I think I’ve reported the same mesmer 3 times in the past week, but I still see him around. Is this the right way to report or should I choose a different option?

Correct, report as a bot.
Keep reporting.

Ever search for a topic before creating one?

Everyone did notice that the Camera settings have the word BETA there, right? We are all familiar with the concept of a beta I hope, so give it time to be worked out.

Funny, I have not found any videos of an AC against the wall targeting the ground beyond a wall. Anyone??

Trying to add from toon inventory to item stack in bank inventory will not combine. Cannot move the stack from the bank inventory to toon inventory and combine either. Searched for this bug report so forgive me if this is duplicated.
Anyone have this issue?

I feel quite sure that the team is aware of this, but I’ll send an e-mail to confirm that they do. I also noted my character was unusually “chatty” tonight, and it seems this is happening to chars of various professions and races.

Aomine.5012:

the dirtiests thing human can think of, will happen during T1 tournament.

Human sacrifices! Dogs and cats… living together… mass hysteria!

Pass on a tourney until HoT is established and stable.

Junkpile.7439:

But people can’t really do anything else than spam staff 1 so they can’t play new classes anyways.

When you are forced to use specific skills and cannot modify (GW builds) then you are – effectively – stuck with what you have. Guard Staff #1 gets you the most enemies tagged and in turn gets you the most possible loot, then players are going to do just that.
Don’t blame the reward system on a pre-set and unmodifiable skill set as player skill level. They aren’t going for skill, they want bags.

Caedmon.6798:

You can do this now….

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMocOT_O6ig

Did you had Any thought when increasing the fov ? Did you test this in wvw ? Is this how it’s supposed to be now ? Its a kittening joke.

You cannot see the targeting – show me one from the AC where you can target previously unreachable places, please.

“We were OP before and you took that from us… give it back!!”
Everyone screamed and complained about how zergs and blobs steamrolled through everything – so a change was made to level the field a bit and everyone is screaming how they cannot steamroll through everything.

Everyone is screaming because we were complaining about how zergs and blobs were able to streamroll everything AND THEN THE MADE IT EVEN WORSE.

Nothing “leveled” the field. Now you either blob, or you get blobbed, and if you run into another blob you stare at each other slinging AOEs and ranged attacks until one side gets bored and either builds siege, runs away, or suicidally pushes into you and dies.

Then there is no fix. If it was bad before and it’s bad now it cannot be fixed by stability or CC or boons or anything skill or trait related. They have to dissolve zerg/blob ability. But that will never happen.
An outnumbered map should have defensive buffs – including stability/CC improvements. But screaming about how you want it back doesn’t fix it, does it?

Instant invisibility in full sight of the enemy…
cry me a river

Poor everlasting stability melee toons got their security blankey taken away and need a pacifier now…

GvG in the WvW arena
Obsidian Sanctum or behind the Windmill in WvW.
You want to host GvG on your borderland have at it. You come to my BL and have a GvG that takes up space where we are roaming – especially if you kill a yak or take a sentry – then you get the zerg.
Sanctum or Windmill.

AC’s were not a problem until the user could better manipulate the camera.
For years everyone has been complaining about the camera.
Fix it, Fix it…
… you broke it, you broke it.

This community complains way too much.

Arathor.7419:

this patch is only going to promote guilds and blobs to run pirateship meta besides that guilds that run 20ish numbers or below wont be able to take on the 30-60 zergs anymore

The warrior stun hammer mezzie portal bomb took a hit?
Adapt
Overcome
Survive

T raw.4658:

Yaks Bend players are extremely overjoyed with the changes and direction of WvW now.

They are the only server that uses siege, right? Because you should never use what the game gives you. Better stop using the food and utility buff…

Perfect fix – remove all classes, weapons and skills. Combatants will meet on the field of battle and engage in Rock-Paper-Scissors.

So the longbow is more of an issue than thieves insta-vanish when they are clearly visible by all? Keep the salt flowing…

Is your monolith wall to scale? I can stand on one side of a wall and throw a ball over it to the other side.
However – you issue of an AC being set directly against the wall and targeting anything other than directly behind/on top of the wall is valid – it’s the ‘zoom hack’ that has still not been addressed.

Orochimaru.4730:

Belenwyn.8674:

I think they have to change the way ACs work. Obstacles should stop arrows. It is ridiculous that you can place ACs directly in front of a wall target the wall and hit targets behind the wall. ACs should work like other siege weapons launching projectiles: obstacles stop the projectiles.

It’s called a trajectory.

Nice explanation, Oro.
Gravity and physics. Math works!

Michael Henninger.7451:

Always report as bot in WvW. It calls a GM to investigate.

But what should a player use to report a griefer/siege troll? There is no choice on the /report function for that if I remember correctly.

1.) How are players to be ‘borrowed’ chosen?
2.) What if nobody wants to be an borrowed merc?
3.) Is the borrowed player upgraded in any way?
4.) Reward me with unique stuff – not extra chests that drop greens and useless inventory fodder.

How about 50% increase to health, damage, speed, casting…
Siege cannot deteriorate…
Your waypoints cannot be contested…
Outnumbering force doesn’t have downed state…
Increase healing or rezzing speed…

Smooth Penguin.5294:

If you cared about the castle, you should defend it by building siege on walls, and have scouts ready to call for reinforcements should a zerg roll by.

See, t’was just a matter of time.

Sind Bowdragon.8374:

To all those responding. Awesome, thank you. Please remember this isn’t a bashing post, just a cry for help.

What exactly do you want Anet to do?

[Insert obligatory siege disable and call for reinforcements post]

Paper wall = paper cata
Reinforced wall = Superior cata…
If I used a regular cata it would take forever. Why can’t I target the corner of a wall to weaken the joined sections? Make that change for me please…

50+ man zergs are not enough so lets add 50 turrets to the mix… THAT will make it fun for sure.

Sorry, I have to say no thank you.
